    Low carb diet

    @dragonard I'm not sure I should be saying this, but there are many free websites with brilliant recipes out there, and you will find recipes in the forum. I had free access to the program but didn't find it helpful. I made up my own diet plan and tested my BG regularly. If money is an issue...

    @coby how about we both support each other and declare our weight loss each week? I would like to lose a stone. Would that help you? I'm not currently checking my BG but will start if that would help motivate you to start?

    Couchto5k Type 1 difficulties with running...

    Hi @Jem154 Well done so far - it's not easy. I'm T2 diet controlled and in my 6th week of zero to 5k. I struggle to get it right! Today was my homework day so I ate my usual breakfast and lunch, worked hard lumping fence posts about for 4 hours, then went for a 2.6 mile run, and felt quite...
